Wenger rues early Aubameyang miss after Wembley humbling

The former Dortmund star squandered a golden opportunity to open the scoring in the Carabao Cup final, much to his manager's frustration

Arsene Wenger rued an early miss from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after his side were humbled 3-0 by Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley on Sunday.

The former Borussia Dortmund striker missed a gilt-edged chance to give the Gunners the lead inside the opening 10 minutes, only managing to hit Claudio Bravo, as Kyle Walker put in a last-ditch challenge.

His profligacy was punished soon after when Sergio Aguero took advantage of limp defending from Shkodran Mustafi to put Pep Guardiola's side ahead, before Vincent Kompany and David Silva added gloss to the scoreline in the second half.
